Welcome to the Jelly Jazz web site
Jelly Jazz, the grand daddy of the funk and jazz scene in the South West of England. Running continuously for 26 years at various venues across the region and beyond, making it one of the country's, if not one of the world's longest running club nights! Specialising in dancefloor rockin' funk, soul and jazz, spiced up with the best of nu-funk, breaks, beats, Latin, drum & bass and whatever fits the Jelly Jazz vibe. It's genre un-specific, but totally funky.
Jelly Jazz Plymouth! Yes yes yes y'all. Jelly Jazz is heading back to Hanging Gardens for the 3rd time this year, so let's do it in style with a FESTIVE FUNKER. Get all your Christmas 'bah humbugs' out of the way, you've done 'the family', you've possibly eaten a little too much and are now ready to escape the seasonal shackles to throw down some shapes on the dancefloor and lose a few calories, bonus! Featuring Jelly head honcho Pete Isaac, and this time around featuring a super special guest DJ - Boca 45 (Mass Appeal Records). Pete and Boca have been working together for the last few years with their music project '45 Live' (www.45live.net) where they and a worldwide crew of DJs celebrate the mighty 7" single...but for this one, the gloves are off, and we are allowed to bring 12" records too! Scott Hendy aka Boca 45 is a masterful turntablist and music producer. Having just released his latest LP 'Forty Five' on the US label Mass Appeal (home to Nas, DJ Shadow and Run The Jewels), he's been having one hell of a year DJing all over the UK and Europe to great acclaim. Why? Cos when Boca is in full-on party mode, he can conjure up an explosive dancefloor with quickfire mixing and epic turntable SKILLS. Expect block rockin' beats, furious funk and jelly jazz, with a few festive nuggets thrown in no doubt. Let's get it on people x
